Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Han Solo [Orange Refractor] #84 sells for $129 against $71.89 raw: a $57.11 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($118) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
